Good day!
best way to get rid of these troubles is to modify hygiene. Good toilet habits and avoiding perfumes and beauty soaps to the area. least possible douchings and post coital voiding with a minimum manipulation would help. so would cranberry juices and increased intake of garlic. Mean while metronidazole and toical antifungals are recommended and seek a gynecologist for an expert opinion.
